Here is where wisdom comes in: Let The ONE that has intelligence calculate the number of the wild beast, for it is a man’s number; and its number is six hundred and sixty‐six.-Revelation 13:18. NWT Bible

SUNDAY afternoon, July 26, 1953, the sun shone brightly on
the home of the permanent headquarters of the United Nations at New
York city. On a marble wall that faces on the United Nations Plaza
stood carved in large letters the words: "They shall beat their
swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation
shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war
any more."

While in* the Yankee baseball
park. There it was the eighth and last day of an international
assembly that had changed Yankee Stadium from a popular sports arena
into an assembly place for matters of far grander importance to all
mankind. There that same Sunday morning at the climax of a speech on
Haggai 2:7 those same words of the prophet Isaiah had rung out: "They
shall forge their swords into plough shares, and their spears into
pruning-knives: nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
neither shall they learn war any more."

*cursive mine.

What was the good news to be proclaimed
that brought together such a crowd (165,829) on a hot July afternoon?
It was the good news summed up in the intensely advertised subject,
"After Armageddon -God's New World."

The speaker's very first words were
applauded: "Armageddon will be the worst thing ever to hit the
earth within the history of man. God's new world will be the best
thing ever to come to distressed mankind and will never pass
away." He went on: "For us to know that the best
immediately follows the worst gives us courage to consider the
subject of our discussion. ... So if we have yet to endure
Armageddon, it will be better for us to face it with understanding,
in the hope of surviving and entering into a new world of God's
making, a world altogether different from the one mankind has known
now for thousands of years, to its sorrow. Armageddon will prove a
great blessing in disguise."

AM-I will stop at that, you can read
the rest of the book if you want to (click onthis

calculations of the Start
of Armageddon, well 18 years exactly after that day I was
born, in July 26th of 1971.
